Windows 7 Users

[detailer]

Is anyone else experiencing loss of all system restore points after a "deep optimize" defrag? I had chalked this up to the RC Build 7100 I was running months back,but the problem continues on 64bit Ultimate and 32bit Pro.Some other defrag apps. I've tried are yielding the same results.No answer found thus far on the two most popular Win7 Forums :???: In fact,two of my favorites actually launch a warning if you attempt an optimized defrag-must be another "improvement" to the new OS! On a personal note,I am not at all impressed with the new Win7,as my old XP rig runs circles around both of my 7 comps that have superior hardware :evil:

I do not use Windows built in system restore function, so can't help you out with this one. Sorry.

Hi detailer,

 

It does not only happens for Windows 7, but XP also and with other defragmenters too.

 

So it is not Win 7 and SD deep optimize specific.

 

Cheers.

It would appear Win7 has a habit of deleting restore points....

Lost Restore Points Windows7

 

I am running windows7 Home Premium and haven't lost any restore points,

but I have been ending up with over 30 unmovable files after defragging in any mode and the number of them are growing by 1 or 2 every 10 or so Defrag's? The big problem is I don't know if there is anyway to find out

what files they are..

Hi again SurfRider,

 

I have replied to you in THIS post.

 

Cheers.

Hi SurfRider

It could be System restore points - depends if your restore point quota is filled up or not.

Another possibility is your setting - if you have the setting that the program is set to ignore files over for example 1GB?

Please give some more information - and please follow the advice of enoskype.

Cheers
